It's hard to even explain how inspiring, refreshing and productive my time with Him has been on those stairs. There were ideas coming together that I've been praying about for months...and it happened right there. On those stairs!

I would never have guessed that one of my happiest spots during this time in Croatia would be right there.

Of course with this view to the right, maybe it's not so hard to believe that this is a happy spot!

I write Living By Lysa from my window's view of Lysa hora in the Beskydy mountains, to capture our life and ministry in the Czech Republic. We serve here with Josiah Venture, an organization passionate about sharing Jesus with the next generation, and training young leaders to make disciples in Central and Eastern Europe.

Life is made up of small details each day and those are the pieces that make our lives rich, beautiful and meaningful. I enjoy noticing and writing about those details.
